They go in a special section of your regular mc file. Down towards the
bottom of the file (before the MAILER lines at the end--mine is also
before the FEATURE for defining procmail as the local delivery agent),
you can define a section of the mc file for "local" configuration
statements.

For custom headers, add a line that reads:

LOCAL_CONFIG

Then you can add a line for the header definition, so that it ends up
looking like this:

LOCAL_CONFIG
HX-FunnyName


(For the "H" line, use the same syntax that you use in your
hand-edited cf file.)

That's all there is to it ... (except for building the cf file from
the mc file the way you normally do ...)
